“The Man Who Killed Kennedy”

“Just get me some names off the gravestones...they would have voted for me if they could...”lol
Dan Rather’s phrase was, “Fake. But accurate.”
Beat me to it. Well done.
Dorothy Kilgallen. Clay Shaw. Carlos Marcello and Santos Trafficante. Charles Harrelson and Lee Edward Bowers. And more.
I've tried to educate myself as much as I can on the subject of the Kennedy Assassination, and to me it all — on the Oswald did it vs. Oswald was the patsy issue — comes down to one single, critical question.
And that question is this: who shot officer J. D. Tippit? If the answer to that question is Oswald, then Oswald shot Kennedy.
If the answer is not Oswald, then the floodgates open.
Oswald killed Tippett and Kennedy. Given JFK’s poor health, any cabal that wanted to kill him could have done it any number of ways that did not involve a head shot in front of hundreds of people, and that would have been thwarted by JFK himself deciding to keep the roof on the car instead of having it taken off.
This should not be the first time I have encountered that quote, but it is.
I don’t think Mike Huckabee should talk about dogs, considering he and his son’s involvement with them.
I must have missed their involvement with dogs. What’s that?
And that question is this: who shot officer J. D. Tippit? If the answer to that question is Oswald, then Oswald shot Kennedy.

I too have read just about everything published re the JFK hit. Your assumption re who shot Tippit may be correct, but it doesn’t address the questions of (1) whether he was the only shooter, or (2) whether he was a player in a conspiracy involving others. And there are many “others” who for various reasons wanted JFK to be eliminated.
The two big problems with the Kennedy assassination are (1) there were so many entities that needed him to be gone, and (2) the investigation that followed the event was so botched, and manipulated, and fiddled with, that loose ends and mysteries were generated by the score.
One of the biggest was this, although there were of course many, many others: Oswald was never given a gunshot residue test.
How incredible it would have been if he was not only a patsy, but a patsy who was actually guilty of firing on the President.
One of the main things I remember from the news coverage on TV that day (I was in the third grade) was all the people swarming up the hill to the "grassy knoll." At the time, I thought they must be running to get out of the way of something. Only years later did I learn that they were running toward (what they thought was) where gunshots had come from. I say "what they thought was," although they may have thought gunfire came from where gunfire actually came from. At least one witness with a military background smelled gunsmoke in the air as he ran up the hill.
Here's a link to one of the videos: Who is Ruth Paine? How was she involved with Lee Harvey Oswald and JFK?.
If you click on the name of the YT channel ("America's Untold Stories") you can watch many more.
Mark Groubert was involved with making Oliver Stone's movie JFK, in which Jim Garrison is made out to be a hero.
I have to say I've watched everything I can about Jim Garrison, and I believe he actually was a hero.

Excellent source of a mountain of evidence leading to the conclusion that LBJ planned the assassination of JFK.
